Re: Bowling Green departure from Va / MD / PA / DE
Okay, I just want to say that I'm in agreement with Rick & John on the waiting for the WAZOO convoy......we can sleep a bit later & drive a bit longer the first day & make it to Huntington WV. I know a Days Inn @ $40/night, stayed there last yr. Place was clean, no frills, but clean, Okay?
Frank, what do you think? I'll ask Lou & Doug what they think about adjusting our departure on Wednesday AM to intercept the WAZOO convoy, okay guys? Capt wrong-way-peach-fuzz

How about the Shoney's at 17301 Valley Mall Road, Hagerstown? Its about 1 mile before I-81 intersects I-70. You take exit 5 Halfway Blvd. going east. |

Re: Bowling Green departure from Va / MD / PA / DE
Is it possible that the WAZOO clan would be willing to meet in Hagerstown around 6:00 so that we woun't be holding up the other group too long?

Guys, I did some more research. If I found the correct Days Inn in Huntington ??? Exit 15 of I64 the cost for 5/11 night is $67.14 with tax. This location is 4-1/4 hours to BG and 5 hours from Hagerstown MD. (Does this sound right Tom??) If the WAZOO guys leave at 6:00 AM from Hagerstown they would meet us at about 11:00 AM. There is another alternative. I found another Days Inn in Fairmont WV Route 250 off of Route 73. Cost on 5/11 night is $61.60 with tax. This location is just under 7 hours to BG and 2-1/2 hours from Hagerstown. If the WAZOO guys depart Hagerstown at 6:00 AM they would meet up with us at this location around 8:30 AM. Which puts us into BG before 4:00 PM, considering a lunch and pit stops for us old folks with bad bladders. The second alternative (Fairmont), in my opinion seems to work out better to hook up the caravans. Of course the WAZOO departure from Hagerstown is what we have to work off of for timing. Any comments or suggestions??? Last edited by jrd1990zr1; 04-13-2010 at 10:11 PM. Reason: I need a spell checker!!! |
